Meet Bridget . . .




According to her bio, " Bridget has a sweet tooth.  More than anything else in the world she loves baking cakes, and scones, and cookies and more cakes . . . but especially custard tarts."

Ah, she's an elephant after my own heart, methinks . . .

with her good pal, Seamus

Bridget has been a WIP for a little while,  but was as much fun to make as her other pals were.  Like Emma Bunny & Seamus Alpaca before her, she hails from Edward's Menagerie and was crocheted entirely with yarn I had in my stash that was left over from a chunky cosy jumper I knitted ages ago.

So, that's another thing ticked off my list. My goal is to finish as many WIPs as I can before the end of January, so that come February I can make a start to all the new crafty projects whirling around in  my head. 



Have a wonderful weekend, lovely peeps . . .
Stay warm & cosy, and be happy.

'til next time
xoxo

  1. Hi Gilly, I love Bridget....I bet she loves peanuts too. Good for you in finishing WiP. I am trying to do that also, but it will take me a year to finish all my WiP's. Love Bridget with Seamus too

  9. 'Tis a pleasure to meet you, Bridget....oh and please forgive me....Seamus! What a perky li'l Elephantidae you are! Such a difference those lovely, mammoth ears make.....so, so happy for you. How perky you and Seamus look sitting there resting on that lovely crochet cushion that Gilly crocheted. Life is certainly looking up for you, what with snuggling under that gorgeous, cosy quilt and enjoying the odd custard tart or two. You are daaahling beyond words!! Oh....just one more thing, I do hope those two adorable puppies of Gilly don't bother you.....but then you can just wallop them with your cute as cute ears!!
